Narrator Rosie Akerman's British upper-crust tones keep pace with this delightful cozy mystery set in late-nineteenth-century Bath, England. Lady Amy Lovell, having broken her engagement to Mr. Ronald St. Vincent just days before, finds his body skewered by a bloody knife in her library. Considered a prime suspect by the local detectives, Lady Amy investigates the murder, using her experience writing murder mysteries and the assistance of her ever-present intrepid friend, Lord William Wethington, a fellow aristocrat and Bath mystery book club member. Using Sherlock Holmes's deductive logic, a host of clues, and lots of legwork, Lady Amy and Lord Wethingon follow a plethora of leads. Akerman adds charm and humor to this complicated story with suspects at every turn. M.B.K. © AudioFile 2020, Portland, Maine [Published: JUNE 2020]
